JoePhish Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 I'll start off with saying that I think most actors get more credit than what they deserve, read overrated. Johnny Depp, Tom Hanks and John Travolta are versatile actors who can pull off any role in any genre of film. They aren't characters of themselves. That's why they are probably my favorites. Lots of Buscemi fans here. I like him in a supporting role more than I like him as the lead. I wasn't blown away with what he did in Boardwalk Empire. Meanwhile, I thought his perfromances in Fargo and Reservoir Dogs were a lot more than memorable. I also think what he did in Con-Air is often overlooked. Quote
OHIO Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Tommy Lee Jones, Sam Elliot, and Tom Selleck should get an honorable mention. 8-) X2. Sam Elliot has the best voice ever. Quote
Fat-G Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Denzel Washington, Matt Damon, list goes on. I've seen some really good movies lately, too. No Country for Old Men Inside Man The Hurt Locker The Book of Eli And more I can't think of right now. I really loved No Country for Old Men. Quote

Super User Lund Explorer Posted February 4, 2011 Super User Posted February 4, 2011 Jimmy Stewart Cary Grant Quote
The one that got away Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 I can't believe no one has mentioned Robert Deniro. Taxi Driver, Goodfellas, Godfather II, The Deer Hunter, etc. He's my favorite, hands down. Quote
The Unabasser Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Morgan Freeman...what are you all thinking...wth Quote
Super User Jimzee Posted February 5, 2011 Super User Posted February 5, 2011 All great actors listed above but I gotta go with Bill Murray. No one funnier when he was in his prime and he really impressed me in Lost in Translation. I agree, very well done. That movie was directed by Sophia Coppola. You might recognize her as Michael Corleone's daughter in Godfather III. Tommy Lee Jones, Samuel L. Jackson, Russell Crowe...all good choices. I always liked Alan Rickman,, particularly in Die Hard.

Super User bilgerat Posted February 5, 2011 Super User Posted February 5, 2011 Keanu Reeves..... Quote
lynyrdsky1 Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Keanu Reeves..... Yea he would be a great actor if he had emotion in his voice and...well..... could act. Quote
B-Dozer Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Well I think about every actor has been named, except Gary Coleman RIP Quote
fishn hard Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 In addition to just about everyone that has already been mentioned, Russell Crowe, George Clooney, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Matt Damon. Seriously? there is only one true mans man left and that is Mark Wahlberg THE SHOOTER and he is a Con :) And cant forget Toby Keith a true American 8-) 8-) 8-) 8-) Quote
TBendBassin Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 since alot of mine have already been named im going say one everyone left out... Paul Newman!! Quote
flippin and pitchin Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Morgan Freeman and Anthony Hopkins for sure. Hopkins scene in Amistad where he addresses the Supreme Court is one of the best scenes I have ever watched in a movie. The other is when Peter OToole in Troy, as Prium, begs Achilles for his dead son's body back. I'm glad no one said Mark Hammil. I would have thrown up. Quote
Super User Maxximus Redneckus Posted February 6, 2011 Super User Posted February 6, 2011 what about robert duvall and tom hanks Quote
Super User K_Mac Posted February 6, 2011 Super User Posted February 6, 2011 Robert Duvall as Gus in Lonesome Dove brings his character to life. I had read the book a couple of times, and Duvall was Gus. Denzel Washington and Robert Redford get honorable mention. Quote
